King Charles III and his monarchy are in full crisis mode after a prominent staff member at Buckingham Palace made multiple racist comments toward a Black activist during an event hosted by Camilla, Queen Consort.
The viral tweet from Ngozi Fulani about Lady Susan Hussey asking her about her ethnicity and where in Africa she was from has negatively impacted Prince William and Kate Middleton‘s visit to the United States.
The King has no time to deal with the revelations and accusations coming his way via Prince Harry and Meghan Markle‘s various projects.
However, he must be delighted that he took preemptive measures to stop Prince Harry and Markle from obtaining actual footage during their trips to attend Queen Elizabeth II‘s Platinum Jubilee in June and her state funeral in September.

During both visits to London, King Charles made sure that Prince Harry and his wife were kept away from all major events.
The California-based couple was not allowed to meet privately with senior royals for long periods. For example, Queen Elizabeth met the family for about 15 minutes during the Jubilee celebrations.
King Charles was firm — no cameras were permitted to follow Prince Harry and Markle because he did not want any of the footage used in their upcoming Netflix docuseries, Harry And Meghan.
Daily Mail Diary Editor Richard Eden explained that senior royals had made it “absolutely clear” that they would not be involved in the bombshell series.

Via Express, the royal expert wrote: “We certainly won’t be seeing moments with other members of the Royal Family. From what I understand, they made absolutely clear they wanted to have absolutely nothing to do with this program. Further evidence of that came when Harry and Meghan came over for Queen Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations.”
He added: “They kept a very low profile, and there wasn’t even a photograph with baby Lilibet, whose birthday it was at the time. And apparently, that was made clear that the Queen wouldn’t pose for a photograph in case it happened to appear in a series like this one.”
King Charles succeeded, Netflix dropped the first trailer for the project, and it seems that the public snubbing of Prince Harry and Markle made it impossible for them to obtain actual footage from the Palace walls.
All the personal photos and clips feature the couple in what seems to be a hotel room and their California home, where they are talking about their complex life and love story.
There is only a photo of Markle outside of Westminster Abbey after the Queen’s funeral. The series also included a 2019 photo that was taken during the Commonwealth Day service at Westminster Abbey, where King Charles and his wife, Camilla, Queen Consort, Prince William and Kate Middleton, are visible.
